−
  _The installer will detect your game and add SMAPI for you. (If you get an error like

  'mono: command not found', you need to install [Mono](http://www.mono-project.com/).)_

That's it! Just launch the game to play with mods. To remove SMAPI later, run `mono install.exe`

again and choose _uninstall_.

Just install the new version; the installer will automatically clean up previous versions.

### On Mac

==Uninstall==

# Launch the installer again (see [[#Install|install steps]]).

# When prompted, choose the ''uninstall'' option.

==Troubleshooting==
−
The installer is the recommended way to install SMAPI, but you can also install it manually.
+
* If the SMAPI window no longer appears after a game update, reinstall SMAPI to fix the launcher.
 +
* SMAPI tries to find a compatible terminal or use your default terminal, but some terminals aren't compatible. If the installer or launcher don't launch a terminal, try installing xterm (doesn't need to be your default terminal).
 +
* See the [[Modding:Player Guide/Troubleshooting|troubleshooting page]] for general troubleshooting.
  
−
1. Download the [latest version of SMAPI](https://github.com/Pathoschild/SMAPI/releases).
+
* If you're trying to install SMAPI for Stardew 1.5.6, be forewarned you need to install libssl1.x. See below for instructions:
−
2. Unzip the `.zip` file somewhere.
 
−
3. Copy the files from the `internal/Mono` folder (if Linux/Mac) or `internal/Windows` folder (if
 
−
  Windows) into [your game folder](http://canimod.com/for-players/faqs#game-folder). If you did it
 
−
  properly, the `StardewModdingAPI.exe` file should be right next to the game's executable.
 
−
4. Make sure the game launches with SMAPI.

This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on Linux.

See instructions for: Android • macOS • Steam Deck • Windows.

Install

  1. Download the latest version of SMAPI.
  2. Extract the .zip file somewhere (but not in your game folder!).
  3. If you installed Steam through Flatpak, see these instructions:
    instructions for Flatpak 
    When using Flatpak, you need to change the default game location:
    1. Open Steam.
    2. Go to Steam > Settings > Downloads.
    3. Click Steam Library Folders under Content Libraries.
    4. Navigate to /home/[your username]/.local/share/Steam, and click Select.
    5. Make sure the new location you just created is selected, then click "..." and select Make Default.
    6. You may need to uninstall & reinstall the game to move it to the correct folder.
  4. Run the install on Linux.sh file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    (If the installer asks for your game install path, see how to find your game folder.)

To install manually instead, see instructions in the installer's readme.

Update SMAPI

Just install the new version; the installer will automatically clean up previous versions.

Uninstall

  1. Launch the installer again (see install steps).
  2. When prompted, choose the uninstall option.

Troubleshooting

  • If the SMAPI window no longer appears after a game update, reinstall SMAPI to fix the launcher.
  • SMAPI tries to find a compatible terminal or use your default terminal, but some terminals aren't compatible. If the installer or launcher don't launch a terminal, try installing xterm (doesn't need to be your default terminal).
  • See the troubleshooting page for general troubleshooting.
  • If you're trying to install SMAPI for Stardew 1.5.6, be forewarned you need to install libssl1.x. See below for instructions:

Arch-based
(Arch, Manjaro, EndeavourOS) 		Install OpenSSL 1.1 by running sudo pacman -S openssl-1.1 in a terminal.
NixOS Use steam-run to run install on Linux.sh in the steps below.
(Make sure your system has steam-run installed, or create a temporary nix-shell with steam-run by executing export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 && nix-shell -p steam-run. Then run steam-run ./install\ on\ Linux.sh in a terminal to start the installation.)
Fedora Install OpenSSL 1.1 by running sudo dnf install openssl1.1 in a terminal.
Gentoo Install OpenSSL 1.1 compatibility by running sudo emerge --ask dev-libs/openssl-compat in a terminal.
